Synthesis of α, α, ω-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl chlorophosphates by the reaction between α,α,ω-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl phosphites and sulfuryl chloride

Conclusions An efficient method for the synthesis of ,,-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl chlorophosphates is by reacting ,,-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl dichlorophosphites and bis-(,,-trihydropolyfluoroalkyl) phosphites with sulfuryl chloride. It has been found that in three-coordinated polyfluoroalkyl phosphites, the high electronegativity of the polyfluoroalkyl groups hinders cleavage of the latter on reaction with sulfuryl chloride, thereby facilitating the formation of oxidation products.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 146–149, January, 1988.     

Zur Kenntnis der gemeinsamen Einwirkung von elementarem Selen und gasförmigem Ammoniak bzw. Ethylenimin auf Ketone

Elemental sulfur reacts with ketones and gaseous ammonia at room temperature yielding thiazoline-3 in excellent yields. Under the same conditions elemental selenium does not react at all. Attempts using the known techniques which have been applied in improving the reactivity of slowly reacting ketones in thiazoline-3-synthesis have been unsuccessful (Exp. No. 1–17). The reaction of -halogenketones with sodiumhydrogenselenide to synthesize -hydroselenoketones gives only the original ketones and selenium in almost quantitative yields (No. 18–23). The same is observed with -haloketones and sodium ore magnesium-diselenides (No. 24–45). The explanation of these unexpected results is the strong reducing power of the hydrogenselenide (No. 46–52). Even -bromoketones with activated bromine (i.g. by phenyl groups) were reduced by sodiumhydrogensulfide giving red undefinite oils. However, -chloroketones give -mercaptoketones in excellent yields (No. 53–61). Hydrogenselenide reduces -mercaptoketones to sulfur and ketones in the presence of triethylamine (No. 62–67). Also the transformation of -selenocyanketones to ,-diketodisenides by alkali or the oxidative hydrolysis of selenium-BUNTE salts does not work and gives elementary selenium only. Studies about the concomitant reaction of elementary selenium and ethylenimine on ketones were continued (No. 68–82).

A preparative method for 9a-hydroxylation of ⁵-3-hydroxysteroids using the fungi ofCircinella sp. 10Kh-1220 not capable of modifying theA ring has been developed.

Substitution of halogen atom in α-halonitro compounds of the aliphatic series

Ethyl -halo--nitropropionate and -butyrate were prepared by alkylating ammonium salts of ethyl bromo- and chloronitroacetates. The addition of alkyl acrylates to alkyl chloronitroacetates or their salts gives dialkyl -chloro--nitroglutarates. Sodium salts of ethyl -nitro--sulfo--hydroxypropionate and -butyrate were obtained by the sulfodehalogenation of ethyl -chloro--nitro--hydroxypropionate and -butyrate with sodium dithionite. Esters of -amino acid hydrochlorides were prepared by the reduction of alkyl -chloro--nitrocarboxylates. The hydrogenation of alkyl nitrosulfoacetates leads to the corresponding disodium salts of alkyl aminodisulfoacetates and piperazine-2,5-dione.For communication 5 seeIvz. Akad. Nauk SSSR, Ser.

Influence of chelating agents in eluent on the separation factor of lithium isotopes

The influence of chelating agents on the separation factor, , of lithium isotopes separation was studied by ion exchange elution chromatography. Eluents contained the chelating agent having different number of coordination sites. The chelating agents used in eluent were Na-glycine (Na–Gly), 2Na-iminodiacetic acid (2Na-IDA), 3Na-nitrilotriacetic acid (3Na-NTA), and 4Na-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (4Na-EDTA). The ion exchanger was Dowex 50W-X8, sulfonic acid type, sodium form. As a result,⁶Li was enriched in resin phase, and⁷Li was in solution phase. The separation factor, , was gradually increased with increasing number of coordination site (=1.0022–1.0038) at the same distribution coefficient and with increasing distribution coefficients (=1.0017–1.0026) at the same concentration of chelating agents.

Formation of Supramolecular Polymers Constructed by Cyclodextrins with Cinnamamide

-Cyclodextrin having cinnamamide at 6- or 3-positions (6-CiNH--CD, 3-CiNH--CD) and -cyclodextrin with cinnamamide on 6-position (6-CiNH--CD) have been prepared. Supramolecular structures were formed in the solid state or aqueous solutions and characterized by measurements of NMR and vapor pressure osmometry (VPO). The results indicate that 6-CiNH--CD formed insoluble supramolecular polymers in the solid state, while 6-CiNH--CD and 3-CiNH--CD formed supramolecular complexes in aqueous solutions. 6-CiNH--CD was found to form a dimer in an aqueous solution. 3-CiNH--CD formed intermolecular complexes to give supramolecular polymers. The differences of the position of guest part on cyclodextrins caused to give a variety of supramolecular structures in aqueous solutions.
